Tag!

I'm back from a wonderful wedding weekend with way wistful wonderment. Ok, maybe that didn't make so much sense, but give me a break, I'm a bit sleep deprived. I danced up a storm last night for an amazing couple (and didn't manage to get so much sleep the entire weekend, I'm apparently not so good at making brides go to bed on time the night before their weddings).

Anyway, despite my delirium, I feel the responsibility of not one, but two, tags weighing me down. Both Jewmaican and Chana tagged me to write eight things about myself, so, sans rules (cuz I don't like them (rules, that is, in general, not these particular ones specifically), here goes (I think that was a less than grammatically correct sentence, but oh well):

1) Purple is my favorite color, with blue a close second (purple managed to usurp blue at some point in the last year or two, seems to be reflective of some slight change in me, but no reason to delve deeper into that now).

2) I used to have a cat. He would shed a lot. Several of my friends were allergic to him and couldn't visit me. Now that he is gone, I miss the cuddling, but don't miss having to watch where I sit and the sneezing factor.

3) I like naming things. All kinds of things, the most recent being the portable air conditioners that took residence in my office. I even made them nametags so all my co-workers would know which one was which.

4) I really like glitter. Glitter in make-up, in art projects and in all kinds of decorative manners.

5) I have party decorations up in my apartment. They were originally for a party but I liked them so much I failed to take them down. They make me happy.

6) I want to be an astronaut. Falling short of actually achieving that dream, I have glow-in-the-dark stars on the ceiling of my apartment that I love to enjoy when I turn my lights off at night. They also make me happy.

7) I am addicted to the Internet. I don't know what I would do without it.

8) I come from Alabama, but I don't have a banjo on my knee.

Anyone who would like to consider themselves tagged is welcome to do so.
